For anybody wanting to try a twin rear setup, here is one i knocked up yesterday.

So, in this example, im keeping the centre muffler, adding a new flange about 200mm behind that muffler, and bolting this onto it.

First thing was to replicate the original bumper cutout to the drivers side.

Its all 2.5" parts... flange, single to dual collector, all 2.5" mandrel bent tube, a dual 3" tip on each side.

under the car, it clears the breather canister but require removal of the other part that vents into the chassis and rerouting of the pipe that fed it.

Noise level with this setup is a bit too much in my opinion, but my partner says its ok. i find it drones too much between 1500-2000rpm. A bit like a didgeridoo.

but anyway, i just made it as a trial... will try adding a 12" long glasspack resonator before each tip later. will need to relocate that canister first tho.

oh hahaha yep thatd annoy me too if it was visible..!

OK so now an update for this setup

it was too loud (for me) from 1500-2000rpm so ive added a pair of glasspack resonators. They are a centre muffler from an EF falcon, $45 each brand new, 2.25" bore, i had the ends put on a swage and expanded so they slip over a 2.5" pipe.

the result is... no more drone! Its louder than the standard muffler but quieter than the first design. i'd describe the sound as somewhere between VN commodore and BMW E46 M3.... an odd comparison, i know. unfortunately it has lost most of that VQ burble that you heard in the first video... changing the resonators for hotdogs might fix that..... or of course changing the main centre muffler...

the clearance issue with the vapour canister.... just need to install a shield rather than relocate it. the pipe running down the right side used to connect to the breather which i have deleted for now but will relocate elsewhere. There is at least 200mm of air gap above the resonators, nowhere near the fuel lines that feed the canister

being a 250gt, id say its minimal, if anything at all.... with just straight pipes it broke into wheelspin much easier, but i doubt it was from a huge power increase.

the one thing i have noticed with both setups is a definite point in the rev range where the exhaust note seems to clash with something... its not a horrible noise, just sounds like 2 different notes at once...

still havent installed the plenum spacer either... but ive heard a rumour about a different plenum that has bigger gains which i'll do some research on.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
